Ben McKenzie is right: America increasingly feels “winner-take-all.” Power & wealth concentrate at the top, while most feel ignored & left behind. One part of the problem? Winner-take-all elections. The solution: Proportional representation. Deb Otis explains. Stitch ➡️ @samisagesays.bsky.social

This video of Eric Swalwell has been determined to be authentic by a digital forensics report reviewed by @newsweek.com

Kinda antisemitic of Trump to give a nationwide address in the middle of the Passover Seder… won’t he think of his Jewish grandchildren?!

Get ready with us to bring you Morning Announcements (Sami’s Video Version), and come along as we document all our exciting upgrades: 5 minute episodes are now 10 minutes, daily video teasers on IG (soon on YouTube Substack & TikTok), and more to come!

Michael Cohen announcing on Lara Trump's show that he's doing a podcast with LAURA LOOMER must be some sort of hazing or humiliation ritual to make him prove he wants back into the Mar-a-Lago crowd badly enough

“ This Dallas fuckery isn't just about Black disenfranchisement in this primary, it's about creating Black disenchantment to depress November turnout and put the core Dem voter base at odds with other constituencies within the party.” - @samisagesays.bsky.social

The answers to the Russia Russia Russia hoax are coming into focus with the Epstein files… how Epstein, Thiel, and Bannon helped Trump win in 2016 betchesnews.substack.com/p/russiagate...

Lots of people have been saying "I can't believe the QAnon was right all along, they just got the wrong party!" Yes... that was on purpose. Did Trump and his allies invent Pizzagate to deflect from the Katie Johnson lawsuit to get him elected in 2016? betchesnews.substack.com/p/pizzagate-...

What's funny about Trump lying about kicking Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago is that Jeffrey Epstein was never actually an official member, he was simply allowed to hang out there without paying for a membership because HIS BEST FRIEND, THE PRESIDENT, IS THE OWNER

It’s long been assumed that Jeffrey Epstein was a Mossad agent… but when Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced his government was investigating the Epstein Files, he said Epstein was running a KGB-backed compromise operation. So what explains the decades of Mossad allegations?

Chefs like Adam Perry Lang are still untouched. It wasn't just “of its time.” Power has always known how to launder itself, while the same names keep resurfacing at banks, universities, and cocktail parties, as if nothing ever happened. @samisagesays.bsky.social @underthedesknews.bsky.social

The Super Bowl halftime show is great. Conservatives are gonna hate it.

a great deal of what they have tried to cover up went back to the Katie Johnson case ... ground zero ... how you connect Epstein to Trump w/ a really serious credible accusation like that is a very straightforward corroborated story - @ @samisagesays.bsky.social on the @tarapalmeri.bsky.social show

@tarapalmeri.bsky.social: There's another email from someone I think it was Epstein saying, you know, Michael Cohen knows everything @samisagesays.bsky.social: You have to be pretty fucking thick to expect people to believe that he did not orchestrate the silencing of the Katie Johnson case

Epstein and his pals fixated on fertility, longevity, and ritual because they didn’t just want wealth — they wanted to be untouchable. Living gods. Immune from consequences. @underthedesknews.bsky.social @samisagesays.bsky.social

I spent 6 days reading the Epstein Files. His impact was wide-reaching and long-lasting. My analysis of the most dangerous landmines he left behind:

IF ONLY THE CREEPS IN THE EPSTEIN FILES WERE AS RELENTLESS ABOUT AGE VERIFICATION AS THE DOJ WEBSITE

Hands small, Greenland big

Spot the difference:

Something we take for granted is that the president has not one nice word for a dead American shot by the government, even if it were accidental

It’s fucked up that trad media is barely covering Jack Smith’s testimony, but if you want 8 hours simplified into 1 thread, I got you. And please share so it gets the coverage this deserves…🧵 I'm going to write this as plainly as possible so people who aren't deep in the political sauce can follow

"we're here to inspect your daycare center"

Can someone ask David Brooks which exit off the Road to Character will get you to dinner with a convicted sex trafficker?

The Epstein files are due tomorrow and within the past 12 hours, Trump has announced the Hunger Games, a $1776 "warrior dividend", that he's changing the Kennedy Center to the TRUMP-KENNEDY CENTER, and designated Venezuela a 'foreign terrorist organization'

why,, coudlnt jeffrey e type out. A complete snetence correctly,

some personal lore: my mother's childhood bully is in the Epstein files

Here’s the deal: if you’re not calling for the release of the Epstein files, I assume you’re implicated somehow

Ghislaine Maxwell is begging Trump for a commutation right now, but we haven’t even touched on half her potential crimes… The public narrative about Epstein needs a major update.

The ADL becoming politicized and partisan is terrible for Jewish people. I am begging them to please shut the f*ck up because their lack of credibility is undermining the community's legitimate complaints. And it goes without saying Jonathan Greenblatt needs to resign.

After Election Day, there’s still a true failure of imagination. ‬ ‪Especially when it comes to the fact that Trump still can do anything he wants with the most powerful military in the world. ‬ ‪And no mayor or governor has been able to stop him yet. ‬ ‪The new ones likely won’t either. ‬

Love to see the fawning over Mamdani's campaign from a certain faction of operatives on twitter while it's crickets on Spanberger and Sherrill who both significantly overperformed relative to Mamdani, whose underperformance I predict will be treated as taboo

can't believe there were consequences for firing everyone living in northern Virginia

I will Venmo $50 to whoever comes closest to guessing the word count of Bill Ackman's twitter rant when Mamdani wins - write your guesses in the comments. 100% serious.

The thing about Chuck Schumer refusing to endorse Mamdani is how he's doing it in the most pathetic way imaginable. If you just don't want to endorse SAY SO ALREADY and give a reason. If you're not sure, TELL US what you need to know in order to decide. Literally how is this man in charge

“Imagine building a legacy without constantly fighting to justify yourself to those who refuse to do anything but kick at your foundation. Imagine being able to opt-out of the spotlight and set boundaries with the public that aren’t afforded to elected officials.“

Kamala Harris should not run for president in 2028. Hear me out...

As crazy as a Vance divorce would be, JD married Usha three personalities ago. He has no qualms about making sharp contradictory turns in public and acting like it’s perfectly normal.

I just want people to imagine if Graham Platner’s responses were coming, not from a burly man in dirty flannel, but a woman. Any woman. How would it all be received?

WAKE UP: Donald Antoinette isn't building a ballroom, he's building Trump Palace

What I find so irritating about the Platner-simping from certain figures from the "progressive left" (Chris Murphy being the latest) is that it's such B-tier frat behavior, like just so desperate for the elusive white manosphere guys to pick them

if we ever end up getting the Epstein files, it's gonna be from another country

The handwringing over the point of No Kings is so defeatist America has such a deficit of civic engagement that yes, this is meaningful No, it's not legislatively or electorally meaningful... because we're so far beyond any governing scenario where it could be

Remember when Howard Dean guffawed
